問題詳情

Passage 4     Men and women often have different ideas of what’s important—and at what point “important”topics should be raised. A woman told me, with lingering astonishment, of a conversation with herboyfriend. Knowing he had seen his friend Oliver, she asked, “What’s new with Oliver?” He replied,“Nothing.” 31 , later in the conversation it came out that Oliver and his girlfriend had decided toget married. “That’s nothing?” the woman gasped in 32 . For men, “Nothing” may be a ritual33 at the start of a conversation. A college woman missed her brother but rarely called himbecause she found it difficult to get talk going. A 34 conversation began with her asking,“What’s up with you?” and his replying, “Nothing.” Hearing his “Nothing” as meaning “There isnothing personal I want to talk about,” she supplied talk by filling him in on her news and35 hung up in frustration. But when she thought back, she remembered that later in theconversation he had mumbled, “Christie and I got into another fight.” This came so late and so lowthat she didn’t pick up on it. And he was probably equally frustrated that she didn’t.
